Hardy Fox of The Residents tells a great personal story about the exact sentiment expressed in this meme:

The Residents - Life Would Be Wonderful

The story is told at about 2m40s in.

My dog often eats raw bones of various animals. Last month he came home with a wild boar skull which has now eaten almost entirely, aside from the teeth and tusks.

Yesterday he caught and ate an entire rabbit. There wasn't even a single hair left.

These are not things any human I know can do, safely or otherwise.

Has a bit of a learning curve, but JDownloader 2 is all I have used for many, many years. I can't speak to IDM or how it looks in comparison.

62 Ford unibody shortbed. Cost me $100. Straight six and three on the tree. Ran like a champ. If you loaded the bed with a lot of weight you could no longer open the doors to get in or out.

Same here. I feel your pain.

Have you checked the BIOS time and date?

Nice to see some SCG up in here. What a group!

Do you have any recommendations for RDP?

No sorry, maybe someone else has some suggestions.

I don't disagree with you, but the standard GUI based update manager in Mint works really well, especially for new users.

Awesome move. Welcome to Linux. Mint is a great daily driver. It just works. And when something goes wrong, you have the ability to poke around and see in detail what is happening, and fix it with the help of the excellent Linux community.

Not to mention the clear advantage of Linux not spying on you or serving you ads.

Enjoy your new OS!

I have seen people hang them from string in fruit trees to ward off birds. 😆
